Archive Tags—Compare Configuration Dialog Box

Description

Use the Compare Configuration dialog box to view the difference between configuration revisions of a device or group of devices. For example, you can compare the most current device configuration in the JUNOScope CVS repository with the one currently running on a selected device or group of selected devices.

There are two ways to navigate to the Compare Configuration dialog box:

• Click Configuration > Repository > Archived Tags. Click the Set Archive Tag link. Associate and tag the configurations you want in the Associate Archive Tags with Devices dialog box. Click View/Tag/Untag Each Selected. Select two configuration revisions you want to compare and click Compare in the Tag or Untag Configuration Revisions dialog box.
• Click Configuration > Repository > Audit Configurations. Select the configuration compare options—devices, source tag and target tag, and the time at which to audit the configuration. Click Compare. The Audit Configurations—Confirm Selections dialog box appears. Click Finish. The View Status Records dialog box appears. Click a link to view the differences between revision X and revision Y in the View Status Records dialog box. If there is no difference between the configuration versions, the following message appears “ No differences between revision 'X' and 'Y’.”
